Are you a kindergarten through 12th grade student in USD 475 looking for flexible, self-paced learning opportunities from the comfort of home? The district has you covered with USD 475's virtual school option, which is designed to provide students with a high-quality education in a flexible online environment.
Virtual school requirements look different than a normal school in our district. Please note that enrollment requires a proof of residency within our district boundaries. A utility bill, bank statement, lease or a deed can be used to show your residency.
USD 475 Virtual School orientation and a payment of a $50 non-refundable tech fee is required before learning can occur. Both parent/guardian and the student are required to attend an orientation and bring proof of residency.
